So Far, the Difference from Facebook is

1. No Adds so far, but to make money (if that is what they are going for) they will need to add them sometime. Now if they just want to get rid of facebook they may wait till that is done then put in adds.

2. No games, which is no big deal for me as I do not play facebook games and get annoyed with my page being filled with game requests.

3. GOOGLE+ does not take ownership of your Pictures and content like Facebook does. Anything you post to facebook becomes facebook property and they can do anything with it that they want, Google+ gives you copyright to all your content.



4. On facebook anything you post is seen by... Everyone following you, this is your circle, on facebook you only have 1 circle.. Everyone.
G+ lets you create your own circles, For instance some of the circles I have are FOLLOWING, GAMING, POLITICS, EXTENDED. But you can make as many as you like. So I can take all my people that I follow and drag them to specific circles or even put some people in multiple circles.
So lets say I put up a post, pic or video of a new video game or tutorial, I would put it up then choose to share with GAMING circle so only my gaming people see it, that way I am not cluttering up my POLITICS circle people with stuff I know they are not interested it, If I have a POLITICAL thing to post I can choose that it only go to my Political group and not my gaming people, or maybe I have a video of my sisters baby I want to post, I can choose that only my FAMILY circle sees that rather than the whole world. I do not want to share family pics of my little nieces and nephews playing in the pool for the whole world so Pedophiles can get off on it.

THis is like having multiple Facebook profiles, You can also choose to share with anyone that follows you and then there is something called extended, which says it shares with all your circles and everyone in all those peoples circles? I think that just lets anyone in any of those circles come to your page and see your stuff, I do not think it automatically posts on their pages, that would be alot of spam.

5. G+ has a very clean look to it so far.

6. I think there is no 140character limit like there is on Facebook.

7. Easy to edit your posts, you can go back, hit the drop down arrow to choose to delete or edit your post, Facebook only gives you the option to REMOVE post.

Im still new so thats all I got so far, Still playing with it.

Be sure to post your G+ page here if you have one.

WARNING, Using G+ can subject you to becoming SMUG, Be careful.

Only you can prevent Google+ SMUG!

love that pic gamexxover.. lol.. lmfao..

so, guys, if you are still enjoying google+ so much, just quickly jump on the google search engine and type in "360-hq.com".

Then +1 a couple of our good links, like the games area, forums, achievements, tutorials or whatever you like.
